Chapter 180: I'll Stay!

At half past five in the afternoon, most of the players were ready to go online.

Most of the 300,000 players from the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th legions have been assembled, and although there are still tens of thousands of vacancies, it doesn't hurt.

The Undead Lord players gathered into an independent Undead Lord Legion, and the legionnaires were all undead soldiers, a full 100,000!

I have to say that local tyrants are local tyrants, and they can develop a legion of undead soldiers with an amount of 100,000 in such a short period of time.

In addition, there are 100,000 magic puppet legions, as well as the army of NPC forces in the northern city has long been prepared.

It is worth mentioning that the Thorn Flower Magic Academy, through its own appeal, has been contacting the magician unions in various cities, and is working hard to solicit and call on magicians to participate in the battle.

While it may not be possible to assemble a complete magical army in a short period of time, if the battle does not favor the player's faction, this army of magicians may be able to help the player turn the tide later in the war.

According to the information provided by the old dean, although His Majesty the new king did not like the Academy of Magic very much, due to the fact that he had just ascended to the throne and was not popular enough, he could not do it and did not dare to provide a large number of soldiers to the Temple of Light.

The old dean estimated that the number of soldiers in the Lion Empire participating in the war would definitely not exceed five million.

Among them, the lack of food and grass for the Lion Empire's army occupies the main reason.

This is good news for players.

"It's Dark......"

Bai Xiaosheng raised his head, glanced at the sky, and then glanced at Xu Ercong.

The sun had sunk, and the sky was dyed with a layer of red glow, which was gradually fading, and the night was coming.

"Attention all players! I'm Xu Ercong from the Paradise of the Dead, and I'm now directing the voice channel to be divided into 1234 rooms, corresponding to the temporary player legion number. ”

"The players of the Second Legion enter Room 2, I will take command of the battle, and all the players of the Second Legion will teleport to the designated place in ten minutes!"

Xu Ercong entered the No. 2 voice room and began to command the battle.

His style is completely different from Long Aotian, calm and orderly, quite a general's style, although not so hot-blooded, but it also gives people a solemn atmosphere of imminent war, which makes people excited.

"The players of the Third Legion, under my command, will set off towards the preparation site in ten minutes!"

Bai Xiaosheng entered the No. 3 voice room and led the players of the No. 3 Legion to set off.

"Cubs of the Fourth Legion! Unexpectedly, Lao Tzu is back! Hahahaha, let's go! Go with my brother and cut people! ”

Legion No. 4 is commanded by Long Aotian, and most of the players of Legion No. 1 are now resting offline because the battle was too fierce last night.

The rest of the combat-ready forces are standing still and awaiting new commanding orders.

......

Half past seven in the evening.

The night has completely enveloped all areas of the Lion Empire, and the combined legions of the Lion Empire and the Temple of Light, which are hurrying at night, are not slow, and due to the divine blessing effects released by the Great Priests in turn, even the warriors on foot can run as fast as riding horses.

And the physical strength is always sufficient, and the morale is always high.

This time, the Lord of the Hall of Light was determined to sweep away all obstacles, and he knew that the lion fought the rabbit with all his strength, so he not only set out in person, but also brought ten archpriests and twenty paladins.

With such quality and scale, no matter how you look at it, it is impossible to lose.

However, due to the extremely large number of coalition forces, when passing through some terrain, the team stretched long and spread far away.

Just as the team passed a forest avenue.

Halfway through the procession, the head of the team where the Grand Priest and the Hall Master were had left the Forest Avenue, leaving only two million remaining army soldiers.

The players are here!

"Kill!!"

Xu Ercong gave an order, and the 100,000 players of the Second Legion suddenly slaughtered from the location of the stealth ambush, strangling the coalition soldiers from both sides of the forest like a vicious tiger pounced.

I have to say that the large stealth scroll made by Xu Xiaofan was indeed extraordinary, and even the Lord of the Hall of Light himself did not notice anything abnormal.

However, this is only possible with large stealth scrolls, and they are expensive, and in addition to being needed in large-scale ambush operations, they will only waste a lot of points when used in small-scale battles.

"Avenge the brothers of the First Legion!"

The philosopher led the legion of undead knights and roared into the charge, and the defeated skeleton horses thrust into the united army with a long-standing charge of moonlight and dead leaves!

"I'm invincible, brothers, kill with me!"

Wang Dali, this guy transferred to the giant skeleton soldier, and as soon as he took the giant skeleton soldier players to appear, the shocked imperial soldiers were stunned.

O my god of light!

It turns out that the colleagues who participated in last night's war are not joking, there are really such big skeleton soldiers in this world!

What did you grow up eating?

This was followed by an overwhelming array of bone arrows, and black cursed light shot from the depths of the forest, wrapping around every soldier.

Weakness, deepening damage, bleeding plague, disease-ridden...... A large number of curse effects were activated, the first wave of curse effects canceled out the divine blessing energy, and the second and third waves of curses successfully worked, greatly weakening the combat effectiveness of the soldiers.

The first wave of the offensive prepared by the players was extremely violent, and the NPC coalition lost at least thousands of people at the first contact, and the number of casualties continued to rise.

Ten minutes after the outbreak of the war, the hall lord who had traveled far away from the coalition army received the news.

"Sure enough, the sneak attack began."

The hall master was not surprised, but smiled: "This group of despicable evil creatures will only sneak attack. ”

"Your Excellency, do you want to go to the rear of the team to support?"

"No, you don't."

The hall master shook his head and said, "I have arranged for five paladins and two archpriests to stay at the end of the team, they will lead the army to fight, and we will continue to advance." ”

"The reason why the undead sneak attack is nothing more than because they are not as strong as us, and their purpose is to stop us from moving forward."

The hall master chuckled: "But I want to rush to the northern city as fast as possible!" I guess the old dean and Andrew should be in the city of the North, or the undead wouldn't have worked so hard to stop us from advancing. ”

Although the hall master did not find the undead players who were lying in ambush, he had already guessed that the players would sneak up on the army.

There is no way, the most used by players is sneak attack and night attack tactics, and the hall master is not stupid, so he is naturally wary.

The hall master knew very well that even if the alliance of four million people had the blessing of divine magic, it would not be able to march faster, and it was easy to be divided by the enemy in the process of marching and attacking.

Therefore, the hall master put the Templar Knights at the front of the team, gathered half of the power of the Grand Priest and the Paladin, and also sat in person, just to tell the undead in ambush that if they want to fight, they will fight the people behind, and they will also carry out a sneak attack in front.

The rear were basically Imperial soldiers, mostly heavy infantry, light infantry, archers, and a small number of cavalry.

In addition to the large number of people, the rush is slow.

The hall master deliberately exposed the weakness that was the most vulnerable to sneak attack at the back of the team, and after the undead sneak attacked, he decisively led the Templar Knights to break away from the team and rush to the northern city at full speed, leaving only a few imperial commanders, paladins, and archpriests to command the battle.

If there are too few undead, then encircle and suppress them, and after resting, try to rush to the northern city to catch up with the vanguards.

If there are too many undead, then give full play to the field advantages of the heavy infantry, use the power of the great priests, and fight a war of attrition in place, and try your best to hold back the undead.

As long as a large number of undead are dragged, the garrison strength of the northern city will be seriously insufficient, and the vanguard army led by the temple will definitely be able to successfully take the northern city!

In the case that the hall master is not aware of the resurrection of the players, from his point of view, his arrangement is very safe.

There is no way, whoever makes the undead basically look the same, even if the undead are resurrected, the NPCs can't tell who is who.

"Brother Cong, something happened! The hall master has divided his troops! ”

The reconnaissance team led by Chen Danshen was in front and saw that the Knights of the Templars had broken away from the team and were heading for the northern city at a faster speed.

Chen Danshen's team was less than 2,000 people, and he was responsible for monitoring the intelligence information of the entire battle situation, and he was powerless to stop the hall master from leaving.

"Division?"

Xu Ercong was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt a sigh in his heart: "Oh no! ”

If you don't stop the Knights of the Templars, with the divine blessings of the Great Priests and the speed of the cavalry, you will definitely be able to reach the northern city in the shortest possible time.

Now two-thirds of the players on the server are playing here, and most of the remaining players in the northern city are newcomers, and they can't stop the attack of a million Templar Knights.

If the northern city is defeated, the players who have lost the city's support will be able to return to the god to rest and resurrect, but the old dean, Andrew, and other magicians in the city of thorns will lose their support!

Without the support of the mages and the power of the alliance, the situation will be back in the hands of the Temple of Light.

If Xu Ercong and the others take the player to fight to the death, and then resurrect and return to the city, although they can catch up with the resistance to the Templar Knights in terms of time, no one can take care of the three hundred soldiers of this group of lion empires.

When the time comes, these three million soldiers and the Knights of the Templar will converge and continue to storm the cities of the North.

That would lose the strategic significance of attacking the coalition at night, delaying the speed of the NPC army's march and depleting the NPC army's strength!

In frontal siege battles, there are not so many bells and whistles, and even if the players can be resurrected, they will definitely suffer in terms of the number of troops.

After all, 400,000 versus 4 million is not as simple as letting each player play 10.

"Gotta find a way!"

"Is it time to put the Northern NPC legions and magic golems into battle? But they may not be able to beat a million Templars. ”

"The magic legion called for by the Wizards' Guild has not yet been assembled, and time must be delayed!"

Xu Ercong's mind was racing, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Bai Xiaosheng, Long Aotian, you take the players of the Third and Fourth Legions to chase the Knights of the Temple!" ”

Bai Xiaosheng was taken aback: "Brother Cong, what about you?" ”

"I'll stay."

Xu Ercong looked at the three million imperial soldiers in front of him, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice: "I'll be responsible for destroying this group of NPCs!" ”

As he spoke, Xu Ercong clenched the black scroll in his hand.

It seems that he can only use this hole card! Take a look at the latest chapter of "We Are the Scourge Claw Book House" to read for free for the first time.
